MacSaber Turns Your Macbook into a Lightsaber

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the macs-and-other-jedi-mind-tricks dept.

Petey_Alchemist writes "SomethingAwful.com forum goon isnoop has developed a useless but fun app that takes advantage of the new sudden motion sensor available in Macbooks. The MacSaber 1.0 causes your Macbook or Macbook Pro to whoosh and crash like a lightsaber depending on how you swing it around. The reviews from those who have installed it say it is quite fun--although there is some concern about whether or not 'lightsaber battles' fall under warranty."

    You mean, people really buy these overpriced "pretty" laptops at 1500-2000? Man, I just slickdeal.net 'ed myself a Dell e1505 for $599 just a few weeks ago. It's drives me crazy to see people pay so much for such a "plain" amount of horsepower!
